Yes, damp proofing cream is a highly effective form of treatment for rising damp. It is important that there is 20% or more active ingredient in the cream.

Damp Proofing Cream a ready-to-use silane/siloxane damp proof injection cream that has been designed to create an effective barrier against rising damp in existing buildings.

When injecting a damp proof course into dry walls DPC cream will take up to four weeks to fully cure, if injected into wet walls this process may take 6 to 8 weeks.

Damp proofing can be done quick and efficiently because of new technology. Small jobs can take 1 to 2 hours and larger jobs can be completed in approximately 6 to 7 hours.

Yes, most damp proofing creams have been designed with both contractors and the public in mind. Please refer to the datasheet for application guidelines.

Damp proofing cream with over 20% active ingredient last for at least 25 to 30 years.

Install a damp proof course, once a DPC is injected all the ingredients activate and spread through the pores of the cement motor line, with the specially formed ingredients it cures to form a physical damp proof course protecting the treated walls against rising damp

Yes, masonry protection cream is suitable to be used on rendering. However if there is paint applied to the rendering unfortunately the waterproofing cream would not work. 

Yes, after 1 month of masonry protection cream application the product will be fully cured. Once the cream has cured you can power wash the walls.

Note: you may notice that the surface beading effect has lessened however this will not stop the effectiveness of the masonry protection cream. 

Yes, masonry protection cream can be applied to pebbledash. However if there is paint applied to the pebbledash unfortunately the waterproofing cream would not work.

Yes, we always recommend you mix or stir to ensure that the ingredients are thoroughly mixed.

Masonry protection cream can be applied by brush, roller or spray.

Yes, masonry protection cream can be applied to roughcast. However if there is paint applied to the roughcast unfortunately the waterproofing cream would not work.

Yes, masonry protection cream can be applied to granite.

No Hydro are currently developing a Masonry Biocide that will be available soon, this can be applied before the application of Masonry Protection Cream.

Yes, once applied masonry protection cream will provide a colourless breathable water proofing barrier, this will prevent any moisture from absorbing, this will then reduce the dirt build up.

You can apply masonry protection cream in all seasons but always follow the datasheet recommendations. It is recommend applying with a minimum application temperature of 5°c and no rain is forecast for the next 24 hours.

When using masonry protection cream we recommend applying 24 hours after rainfall and 24 hours before any rain is forecast.

Yes, masonry protection cream can be applied to engineering bricks.

Yes, masonry protection cream can be applied to some tiles like concrete and clay tiles, however it would not be suitable for painted tiles, glazed clay tiles and engobe clay tiles. 

Yes, masonry protection cream can be painted over with a water based exterior grade emulsion masonry paint. 

No Hydro highly recommended you to paint over masonry protection cream within 3-10 days of application. If application is after 3-10 days the surface beading which develops can inhibit the paint adhering to the surface.

The most common dampness on external walls is penetrating damp / rain penetration. You can treat penetrating damp and damp proof bricks by applying masonry protection cream.

Masonry water seal has a minimum application temperature of 5°c, however the manufacture minimum temperature we can advise is 3°c. Masonry water seal should not be stored in temperatures below 3°c.

First Coat: Prepare 3 parts sand and 1 part cement using the dilute No Hydro Salt Inhibitor solution.

Second Coat: The mix is as for the first coat except that water is used instead of No Hydro Salt Inhibitor solution. This is applied as a further 12 mm coat, giving a total thickness of 24 mm for both coats.

Final Coat: This should consist of a 3 mm layer of gypsum skim finish or similar finish. Other finishes are acceptable provided that they are porous.

Tanking slurry is a cementitious waterproofing system which creates a monolithic bond using crystalline chemicals when applied to concrete and masonry structures.

Yes, tanking slurry waterproofs against positive and negative hydrostatic heads of water and is suitable for use, internally, externally, above and below ground.

Yes. however make sure you leave the tanking slurry to dry for at least 7 days before applying plaster boards.

A 20KG bag of cementitious tanking slurry will cover up to 7 m² at a 2mm thickness. Refer to coverage calculator for more information.

Tanking slurry is a cementitious waterproofing system for above and below ground surfaces. When mixed with clean water and applied correctly to a damp surface, it is designed to form a permanent waterproof coating to concrete and masonry.

No tanking slurry cannot be applied to painted walls, all surfaces must be free from existing coatings or contamination e.g paint, oil, dirt, and other loose materials.
